I appreciate the understanding. The book is 1 lb, 4oz and a bit over 3/4" thick. USPS has a tiered pricing structure that puts the book into another tier. Shipping costs jumped from under $5 to nearly $20 to virtually all international locations. I thought shipping was going to be straightforward but it really wasn't at all.

Looks like there is a need for a "print on demand + shipping" geographically distributed network.

  Amazon does exactly that. (I'm guessing selling on Amazon doesn't fit into the author's sales model)

  Amazon already offers this https://www.createspace.com/ https://www.createspace.com/

So are you shipping via USPS? I'm about to buy. I use a PO box for receiving most parcels, but only the postal service can ship there. 10x the hassle to accept via courier. The landing page didn't say if PO boxes work.
